Experiences from a small island in the East China Sea
(I blocked out some info that I didnt think was a great idea to have posted on the web...)
Not sure if this picture will show up very clear, but it is a beautiful farmhouse right on a little bay. They get to watch the sunset over the ocean every night. This is a really great spot for a house!
Standing in a small park looking out over one of the neighboring islands. I'm not sure what the name of this one is, there are many small islands all around the one I am on.
Same park looking at the beach below and the island in the background. Unfortunately this park is not used very much at all (most of the parks on the island seems to not be used). The beach has a lot of trash collected on it. The students at the school do beach cleaning days, but I dont think this one is on the circuit anymore. Because of the decline in population on the island, many of these nice little spots have fallen out of care. There are not enough people using them, and not enough money to keep them maintained, I guess. It is a shame, because there are some areas that look like they used to be really nice.
Hopefully I'll be able to post more pictures soon, these few dont do the island justice at all. Even despite the lack of upkeep in some areas, it is a very beautiful island.
Incidently, it can be a bit laborious to do difficult tasks on my japanese laptop. Most of the menus are written in Kanji (difficult to read much of the time) so either i am choosing options based on memory from using the english version, or it is trial and error until i click the right one.
